In a much-needed boost, the Telangana government has announced its approval for the hike in ticket rates for Prabhas and Kriti Sanon’s soon-to-release mythological epic, Adipurush. The government has allowed the single screens across the state to increase Rs 50 per ticket. Also, the single screens can start the screening of Adipurush from as early as 4 am on the 16th of June.

As per the latest G.O. issued by the Telangana government, the maximum permitted ticket rates for the first weekend are Rs 236 plus 3D charges for single screens and Rs 295 plus 3D charges for multiplexes. And for the weekdays starting from the 19th of June, the ticket rates would be capped at Rs 177 plus 3D charges for single screens and Rs 295 plus 3D charges for multiplexes.

This move by the government will surely boost Adipurush’s box office collection in its opening weekend and the following week across the state. The Om Raut directorial also features Saif Ali Khan as the Demon King Ravan.
